Features: 5/8 in. x 200 ft. red/white Reel From the Manufacturer This 5/8-inch by 200-foot solid braid "Derby" polypropylene rope reel is great for boating, excellent for use over pulleys and winches, dog tie out, or horse leads. Because of its light weight, polypropylene (poly) is the only rope which floats, and for this reason is very popular for use as pool markers and water sports. solid braided rope stands up especially well to chafing of blocks and pulleys. The lock stitch construction of solid braid rope makes a firm, round and tightly woven rope, which prevents unraveling when cut or torn. The rope is abrasion resistant, and it resists rot and mildew. This construction cannot be spliced. Poly is affected by sunlight deterioration (more so than any other synthetic or natural fiber rope), but its life can be extended by storing it away from direct sunlight. Poly begins to weaken and melt at 150 F, the lowest melting point of all synthetic ropes. It is not as strong as nylon or polyester, but two to three times stronger than manila. Because poly is less expensive than other fibers, it is the most popular all-purpose rope for the average consumer.
